First, it was Jennifer Lawrence. Now actor and comedian Ed Helms is telling Memphis voters to shoot down a trio of ballot questions on Nov. 6 in a video the group Save IRV released Thursday.

"Ten years ago, the people of Memphis voted to give the voters more power and to hold the politicians more accountable," Helms said in the video. "Guess what? Big surprise — politicians don’t like it. So now they’re trying to ban instant runoff voting, also known as IRV. I don’t think Elvis would have stood for that.”

Helms is part of RepresentUs, a national anti-corruption advocacy group.

Save IRV released the Lawrence video criticizing the Memphis City Council for the three ballot questions on Oct. 17, the first day of early voting in Shelby County. The Helms release comes on the last day of early voting, and five days before the Nov. 6 election.

The ballot questions ask voters whether City Council members should be able to seek a third four-year term.

The second question, if approved, would repeal a 2008 charter amendment that allows instant runoff voting, or ranked choice voting, in single-district council races. The last question being posed to Memphis voters would eliminate runoffs and award the seat to the top vote-getter.

Save IRV unsuccessfully sued the city and the Shelby County Election Commission in an effort to get the three questions removed from the ballot, arguing the wording is misleading and deceptive.

The group also sued the City Council for a last-minute "public information campaign" on the three questions. Shelby County Chancellor Jim Kyle dismissed the suit earlier this week, and said it wasn't "ripe" before the election.
